[nagdu] an update on my friend

[Lyn Gwizdak]

Yeah, guess that's one of the risks of being on lists - people can contact 
people off list.  That really shows one what kind of people some folks are. 
But those are the bad apples and it is a shame that it ruins it for people 
when this minority is doing stuff like that.  I'm an optimist - I think most 
people are basically good and the people on all of the lists are basically 
good folks.

I hope that lady will come on to our list and that she not get treated 
badly.  Goes to show how our actions can affect others.

Lyn and Landon
